Seals out water : Mack’s Pillow Soft Silicone Earplugs are made of moldable silicone that forms a seal over the outer ear opening. Though no earplugs can keep ears completely dry, recent medical studies in the journals Otolaryngology — Head and Neck Surgery and the American Journal of Otolaryngology found Mack’s Pillow Soft earplugs to be the most effective of the earplugs they tested at preventing water from entering the ear canal.

The Pillow Soft earplugs work fairly well outside of the water too. With a noise reduction rating (NRR) of 22 dB, reviewers at Amazon.com say they’ve used them for sleep and for airplanes. If your main goal is noise reduction, though, these probably wouldn’t be your first choice.

Comfort/feel

Fits to your ear : Mack’s Pillow Soft Silicone Earplugs are moldable, so they can be made to fit any ear. In addition, the earplug forms a seal over the outer ear opening, so no part of the earplug rests inside the ear canal, the more sensitive part of your ear. One reviewer at Amazon.com didn’t like this seal, as it created a vacuum effect inside his ear that was uncomfortable. The earplugs are also sticky, which some reviewers at Amazon.com saw as a benefit because it helped the earplugs stay in place. Others found the stickiness a detriment because it meant the earplug collected hair and dirt.

Value

Semi-reusable : Mack’s Pillow Soft Silicone Earplugs cost $2.75 for two pairs, but they can be reused. Reviewers on Amazon.com say the earplugs are easy to wash and reuse. Mack’s recommends that the Pillow Soft earplugs only be used five times or until their stickiness wears out. Customers at EarPlugStore[dot]com second this sentiment, noting that the earplugs can’t last longer than six days. Although $1.38 per pair is not necessarily expensive, the price can add up if you are routinely in the water. A number of users say the life of the earplugs is much shorter — only two days.
